Angels - DeVotchKa

Come on empty your conscience and come clean for me

I would empty my pockets, times are lean you see

And they got us right where they want use

We’re just cogs in the machine

Come on empty your conscience and come clean for me

Oh tonight we’ll sleep the sleep of angels

We won’t have time

I can’t keep (on flight with danger)

And it ain’t right to be battened down like strangers

For tonight you will sleep just like an angel

Oh the look on your face is just priceless

Oh lord what have I done to invite this?

Oh the look of this place must be hopeless

I was hoping that you wouldn’t have noticed

And where we ain’t going

There ain’t nobody, nobody, nobody knows it

Like the dog in the story

That just keeps going, and going

Oh tonight we’ll sleep the sleep of angels

We won’t have time

I can’t keep (on flight with danger)

And it ain’t right to be battened down like strangers

For tonight you will sleep just like an angel

Oh the laid a maze before us

It’s come to my importance

As long as you ignore us

We’ll have days lost in the forest

And the hope of your love is

The hope of is enormous

We’ll light signal fires and wave our arms

We’ll make our way before us

C’mon wrap up your sorrows

In the blankets that we borrowed

And we’ll march on like good soldiers

Into a world that’s getting colder and colder

And near this time tomorrow, all our troubles will be over

C’mon wrap up your sorrows

Come cry ourselves…

Tonight we’ll sleep the sleep of angels

We won’t have time

I can’t keep (on flight with danger)

And it ain’t right to be battened down like strangers

For tonight you will sleep just like an angel
